Guys...I dropped my car off at the body shop and just look what those monsters did? What should I do?








Removing the spoiler on Saturday. Side skirts to come.

Oh and excuse the dirtyness...just picked it up and got a little excited.

So...what did it look like before you dropped it off, so we know exactly what it was that they did?

Those *******s stole the COBRA writing off the back bumper!!! Get out your AR and blow the place to all hell!!!

Now all you need is some cobra sideskirts.

So...I guess the real question here, is how much did it all cost you? Part and labour?

Parts were $300

Labor was free + case of beer = $15

Wait...so how did you get a Cobra hood along with both front (complete with fogs) and rear bumpers...and paint for only $300?

I'll also assume you had the rear bumper filled as well?

Looks great! Sucks that you have to run that front plate tho. That's the biggest reason I want to get a new front bumper. No plate notch!

Yea, I'm getting used to the plate. I ran for awhile without it, I just didn't want to get stopped and harassed.

Oh well, you can't please everyone. All that matters is YOU like how it turned out so at the end of the day, who cares what anyone thinks? After all, you own the car

Oh I most definitely do enjoy how it turned out, and I don't care for much of the aftermarket stuff, I was just hoping some local car enthusiasts would appreciate the work. Oh well.

Yes, I do believe wingless is the plan. Going Saturday for a tiny hood gap issue and see when he can fill the trunk for me. Not diggin the gt wing with all this new stuff. Skirts will def be on the list soon too.

I dunno why they actually bashed me for it, jealous I guess lol...they see me rollin'...they hatin'....ok I'll stop.

Bought some v6 fender emblems(pony w/ 3 stripes) and I will figure something out for the trunk lid emblems. Oh and I'm going to put some 3.5" magnaflow tips on there too on Sat to fill it out and look 10x better.
